Journey to the Center of the Earth (It Took 8 Days, I Lost 10kg)

Join us on an extraordinary journey into the depths of Krubera Cave, the world’s deepest cave according to scientists. Over the course of 8 days, we venture into total darkness to determine its exact depth and uncover the secrets of this subterranean marvel.

Our expedition covers nearly 5 kilometers of rugged terrain, where we face extreme challenges, including losing an average of 10 kg per person. Along the way, we hope to discover new animal species that have been isolated for millions of years in this hidden world.

This is not just a journey; it’s a historic exploration into the unknown. Don’t miss the incredible story of survival, discovery, and human perseverance.

Special thanks to the Crimean Federal University, the Russian Geographical Society, the speleologists Геннадий Самохин, Пётр Козачук, Алёна Тищенко, Григорий Гапеенко, Евгений Богданов, and Ruhi Cenet's personal trainer, Ramazan Kaya.
